I apologise for the extreme vanity that is present in this post. I started taking selfless on my phone, and thought the pictures had a really nice effect because of the Autumn sunlight, so I whipped out my trusty camera and thought I'd be a "real" blogger for once and do some posey photos.
I also really wanted to show you guys this burgundy smokey eye look. Weird back story - I actually dreamt that Jaclyn Hill told me burgundy eye makeup would make my eye colour "pop," and nobody can tell Jaclyn she's wrong…. so I had to try it out.
It definitely looks darker and smokier in person but never mind. I used my Makeup Revolution Flawless Palette, and basically just used a sandy colour on the lid, and blended the two burgundy colours in the crease. Blend, blend, blend is the key for this, and I really smoked out the lower lash line as well. A bit of white eyeliner in the waterline helps brighten up the eye, and a red and brown ombre lip completes the look.
I hope you enjoy these first "posey"selfies, using my new camera. Let me know if there's anything new you want to see from me.
Lots of love, N x
Beautiful! xx
